Operation HELP
In December, 2006, the members of GotTwinz started something new! We began a covert operation that was dubbed
"Operation HELP".
Operation HELP exists because of the kind and generous natures of the
members on this board. We banded together, gave from the bottoms of our
hearts and bank accounts! It started out as a small operation with the
intention of helping out one special member of our family. When it was
all said and done, we were able to send gift cards to four of our
members!
Because we understand that at one time or another, each one of us may
face challenges in our lives, we have decided to keep Operation HELP up
and running year round! We will be accepting monetary donations
throughout the year (not just during the holiday season) and dispersing
it as needed to the families here at GotTwinz.
If
you know of a fellow GZer in need, please notify the mods or admin. If
you are wanting to donate, please paypal donations to operationhelp@gottwinz.net. Make sure you include "Operation HELP" in the subject line.
GotTwinz was also made aware of a gentleman suffering from Progressive
Primary Multiple Sclerosis, Wes House, earlier this year. Wes is
a friend of one of our members, and had lost his ability to
speak. This caring member and her husband organized a charity
event called, “Rock the House,” hoping to raise enough money to buy him
a computer that speaks for him. When those of us at GotTwinz
became aware of the situation, we started taking donations for
him. Our caring members raised over $400 for Rock the
House, and combined with the successful charity event, they brought in
over $6000.
GotTwinz
also plans on holding a yearly charity auction. Our members will
donate items, and all donated items will be put up for auction.
All proceeds from our charity auctions will be donated to charities,
which will be determined before each auction.
If you are interested in donating items or services to our charity auctions, please email admin@gottwinz.net. |
